Every November, the Keystone Crossings site conducts an "Annual PRRModeler's Needs Assessment Survey".The survey asks respondents to list their top three desired models in eachof several categories, including steam power, diesel power, electricpower, freight rolling stock, passenger rolling stock, etc.Ballots are typically available for one week and are then summarized onKeystone Crossings.Summaries are also sent to several dozen manufacturers. Though our surveyis unscientific, and doesn't take into account quantities each modeler maydesire, we have noted that each year many of our top desires are announcedas products within 12-18 months. So perhaps this data provides a "pulsepoint" to the industry.The ballot is now open and runs through midnight, Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011.You will find the ballot and past results here...http://kc.pennsyrr.com/survey_2011.phpThank you for your participation!-- Jerry Britton
